Now that is peculiar. It's almost as peculiar as a woman claiming to be a man. Not quite, but close.

We are created as LGBTQ+, as are plants, animals, birds, insects, AND humans.

[jlisenbe]

We are created as bank robbers, murderers, adulterers, schizophrenics, liars, and so forth. We just can't help ourselves. Why, it's all over the animal world!!

Illogic on steroids.

[tomder55]

in other words LGBTQ++XYZ is a compulsion.

[Wondergirl]

Nope. they've existed since the beginning of life on Earth.

I'm am an "ace". The A in LGBTQIA.

From the Letters to the Editor section of this morning's Chicago Tribune:

Feeding homophobia

This past weekend, we saw powerful operas commemorating the Holocaust by composer Jake Heggie and librettist Gene Scheer presented jointly by Music of Remembrance and Chicago Opera Theater. One of the pieces, “For a Look or a Touch,” tells the story of how gay people were treated by the Nazis, marked by pink triangles and sent to concentration camps.

I wish that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis could see this and perhaps understand where his “Don’t Say Gay” cruelty could lead.

Even better, perhaps WG could take the ten minutes to find out that there is no "Don't Say Gay" cruelty to begin with. It's just a typical liberal lie for which there is no support at all. Some respect for truth would be a good thing.

Honoring the truth instead of living in a fantasy world. It just highlights what I dislike about trying to discuss anything with you. You are so driven by ideology that you have no regard for truth. When you are presented with clear evidence that you are wrong, you just laugh that off. You post links that destroy your own POV, and then just laugh about that as well as though it is nothing. That's a world I don't wish to live in under any circumstances.

[Wondergirl]

Then move to Florida. Then you'll see "Don't Say Gay" cruelty.

[jlisenbe]

Perfect example of what I've said. "I have no evidence to support my lie about DeSantis, but if you would just pack up and move to Florida, then I'm sure you would see it."

Ridiculous.

Public school teachers in Florida are banned from holding classroom instruction about sexual orientation or gender identity after Florida's Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican, signed the controversial "Parental Rights in Education" bill.

DeSantis and other supporters gathered for the bill signing called this messaging "sloganeering" and referred to efforts to educate students about LGBTQ issues as part of "woke gender ideology."

Studies have shown that LGBTQ youth already face higher health and suicide risks than their cisgender or straight peers. When those kids are given access to spaces that affirm their gender identity, they report lower rates of suicide attempts, according to The Trevor Project.
The Trevor Project condemned the signing of the bill saying the bill erases "LGBTQ identity, history, and culture — as well as LGBTQ students themselves."

Public school teachers in Florida are banned from holding classroom instruction about sexual orientation or gender identity...

If you had bothered to read the second paragraph of your own biased link, you would have discovered that the statement above is not true. "Classroom instruction by school personnel or third parties on sexual orientation or gender identity may not occur in kindergarten through grade 3 or in a manner that is not age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students in accordance with state standards."

" the bill erases LGBTQ identity, history, and culture — as well as LGBTQ students themselves."

Complete, ridiculous lie which is obvious to anyone with any regard for truth.

In your own post you failed to find anything at all suggesting Florida school personnel cannot say the word "gay". Hopefully you will retract that bit of slander.

[tomder55]

There is no Don't say gay law . That is a vicious smear . There is a 'Parental Rights in Education Act'

What it does is affirms the rights of parents to be involved in any 'gender identity intervention' between the school and their child.
It bans schools from hiding information about mental health counseling and supports monitoring from parents, except in extreme cases that
would “result in abuse, abandonment, or neglect.”
Before the law there were at least 7 districts that could make gender decisions without parental consent .


The law also bans classroom instruction” on gender identity in kindergarten through third grade .
BOOOO HOO ! Is that unreasonable ? Kindergarten kids should not be taught that period !!!

As the OP says ;Leave them kids alone !




Once the law was enacted all the crazy nut job protests ended in a whisper .

I wish I had known about LGBTQ+ back when I was a kid. I would have understood myself and others so much better. It can be calmly and honestly discussed with children, even young ones.

[tomder55]

shows the absurdity of the lie that it is a 'don't say gay ' law.

How do drag queens "groom" kids, especially at storybook readings at public libraries, etc.?

[tomder55]

"Grooming" is deliberately sexualizing and manipulating children.
This leads to distorted thinking about their identity, relationships, family, and sexuality.

.The real question is why do Dems defend it ? The real question is why do Dems become so worked up to opposition about those sicko perverts ? The real question is why do Dems defend 200 lb perverts and not little children ?

I would object equally to a female stripper performing in a library while reading books to children .
